Chapter 197 âBenâs dead?â
Olivia was still in a trance as she tugged at Zyla. Her face was pale and bloodless as she said, âSay that again.â
âBenâs... dead.â
âNo way! Impossible!â
Olivia cried and shook her head. âYouâre lying to me, arenât you?â
Zyla had no idea what had happened, but she knew Ben was an important witness.
It would upset Olivia now that he was dead.
Therefore, she hugged Olivia tightly and comforted her in a whisper, âSis Liv, Iâm sorry. He was already dead when the ambulance got there.â
âHow is that possible?â
Ignoring the needle in her hand, Olivia shook Zyla desperately, crying and asking repeatedly.
How could the witness she tried so hard to find just die?
Zyla frowned as the tube in her hand ran red with blood. However, she could not think of anything to comfort her, so she let Olivia shake her.
Finally, Olivia cried until she passed out, and Zyla breathed a sigh of relief.
Once Olivia was settled in, Zyla returned to Golden Hills Apartment with groceries, preparing to make her soup.
Hospital.
âHsss!â
An excruciating pain made Olivia sit up in bed.
She met a pair of malicious eyes as soon as she opened her eyes.
She subconsciously wanted to hide but found someone pressing her left hand hard. Seeing the bright red blood seeping through the gauze, Dorothy let go with a sneer.
âHa, Olivia. Youâre so lucky that it didnât kill you!â
With that said, Dorothy smiled triumphantly âBut Ben isnât as lucky as you.â
Dorothy smiled more when Olivia was silent.
âLiv, whatâs with that expression? Shouldnât you be glad you survived?â
Olivia swallowed the pain and propped herself up in bed. She looked at Dorothy as if she were going to bite her to pieces.
âDorothy!â
âActually, Iâve been looking for Ben for a long time. Thank you very much for helping. me find him. Otherwise, it would probably have taken more time.â
Dorothy sneered. âThe man was so good that he pretended to be a beggar to get away from me. Liv, youâre good. You found him.â
Oliviaâs pupils dilated as if she thought of something.
âDid you plan the car accident?â
âThatâs right. Am I supposed to let you bring Ben back and testify against me?â
Boom!
Oliviaâs mind buzzed.
She thought she was the first to find evidence of Dorothyâs crime, but she did not expect that Dorothy would find out and then let her destroy it in front of her!
She looked at Dorothy with scarlet eyes as her teeth crunched. âDorothy, youâre a monster!â
âReally? But I remember warning you not to feign compliance. Or you will suffer the consequences. Why did you disobey me?â
Dorothy leaned over and squeezed Oliviaâs jaw. âBut I loved watching you suffer. Itâs a pleasure to watch!â
âYou!â
âWhatâs wrong with me? You must hate me, donât you?â
Dorothy was unbothered. She was now in control and was not afraid.
Then she smiled dismissively. âOlivia, have you forgotten how much leverage I have on you? Youâre over-confident to think you can fight me!â
âDorothy Ellis Olivia was shaking all over The thought of her brother and Uncle Wallace made her reach out and grab Dorothy by the hair Just as she was about to pull, she heard Dorothy say. âDo you know Zacâs dying because of you?â
